Abstract
We realized two PbS colloidal quantum dot (CQD) based Schottky photodetectors, formed of indium tin oxide anode, the photosensitive PbS layer, and a Schottky contacts of titanium-gold (Ti-Au) stack for higher longer lifetime and aluminum (Al) for higher responsivity. Long capping ligands of PbS QDs were replaced with shorter ones and layer-by-layer deposition method was applied to form pinhole-free and uniform PbS CQD films, enabling better responsivity and longer lifetime. In Al/PbS, under 2 V reverse bias and 5 mW/cm <sup xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">2</sup> illumination at 1550 nm, 0.195 A/W responsivity, 15.6% quantum efficiency, and 8.19 ×10 <sup xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">10</sup> Jones normalized detectivity is achieved.
